General Information
Registration fee includes admission to all sessions, conference syllabus, continental breakfasts, refreshments,
lunches, access to exhibits, as well as meeting materials for continuing education certification. A Concurrent
Session Schedule, based on your registration form selections, will be in the packet you receive during on-site
conference registration. Register early to ensure placement in the sessions of your first choice. Registrations are
confirmed via email.
In an effort to reduce waste, be environmentally-aware, and decrease costs, MPO is taking the following steps: 1)
Handouts will be posted on our website as of September 4th. Participants are welcome to print handouts to bring
to the conference. Those wishing to have handouts provided by MPO will be charged $20. Please indicate on your
registration form if you wish to purchase handouts. 2) We have transitioned to an electronic distribution system.
Participants are asked to include an email address for distribution of reminders and the brochure. 3) Evaluations
and continuing education certificates will be completed online via the MPO website. Continuing education
certificates will not be distributed at the conference.
All registrations must be accompanied by a check payable to MPO and postmarked on or before September 4,
2015. You may also register on our website www.minnesotaperinatal.org by September 4, 2015. A refund, minus a
$30 processing fee, will be given if notice of cancellation is received on or before September 4, 2015. Cancellations
after September 4, 2015 and no-shows will not be refunded. Substitutions are welcome. You may register after the
cut-off date or at the conference, but there will be a late fee of $20 in addition to the usual registration fee.
A block of rooms has been reserved at Arrowwood Resort & Conference Center. Room rates start at $99.00 plus
tax per room, for up to two people per night. More than two people per night may result in additional charges;
please confirm rates with hotel upon registration. This block of rooms will be held only until Wednesday, August
26, 2015. Arrowwood Resort & Conference Center will take reservations via phone at 866-386-5263 or 320-762-

Only registered conference attendees are eligible to attend conference sessions, meals and activities. In
consideration of conference participants, we ask that children not attend any conference sessions or activities.
While we sympathize with last minute schedule changes, conference attendees bringing children will be asked to
leave and will be refunded their conference registration fee minus a $30 processing fee.
Purpose & Objectives
This program is designed to provide state-of-the-art information on obstetric and newborn care practices, and is
of particular importance and value to obstetric and newborn care nurses, nurse practitioners, midwives, family
physicians, physician assistants, obstetricians, pediatricians, and allied perinatal health care professionals. After
attending the conference, participants should be able to:
1) Describe the process to implement individual and population-based systems of care that are irrespective of the
consumer’s race, age, culture and outcomes-based research. 2) Discuss the design plans of inpatient and
outpatient care for implementation by designated healthcare professionals, which address the unique nutritional,
developmental, psychosocial, nursing and medical needs of mothers and infants. 3) Develop personal goals that
will promote a positive outlook on their role as an essential member of the perinatal healthcare team.
Successful completion of this activity requires that participants turn in all evaluation materials for attended sessions.
Planning Considerations & Disclosure Policy Content considerations and the selection of speakers are the responsibilities of the Planning Committee. Speakers
will disclose to attendees the nature of any significant financial relationships they have with the commercial firms
providing financial support as well as the manufacturers of products and/or the providers of services discussed in
their presentations. They will also disclose if any pharmaceuticals or medical procedures and devices mentioned in
their presentations are investigational or unapproved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Contact Hour / Continuing Education Information Nurses: This two-day activity has been designed to meet the MN Board of Nursing continuing education
requirements for up to 12.3 contact hours (Thursday: 7.2 – Friday: 5.1).
Physicians: Application for CME credit has been filed with the American Academy of Family Physicians.
Determination of credit is pending.
Special Needs MPO wants to make sure no one is excluded because of the need for special dietary considerations, auxiliary aids
or services. Please indicate special need(s) on your registration form. You will be contacted as needed.
